It's really painful to keep some things bottled up inside. It's better to talk about them, cry, and vent. That will make you feel much better.

After returning from the hospital, Ji Zhinan felt a jumble of emotions, as if a mountain was pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.

Now that I've cried out all the grievances in my heart, I feel much better.

Gu Yibei turned on the room lights, and the two sat cross-legged on the carpet. Gu Yibei held a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, picked up some vegetables and rice, and carefully fed them to Ji Zhinan.

Ji Zhinan chewed his food, his brow relaxed, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Eat this." Ji Zhinan pointed to a plate of food.

Gu Yibei immediately reached over with his chopsticks, picked up some food, and fed it to him.

Seeing Ji Zhinan's happy eyes squinting, the man curled his lips: "Next time you go to see Grandpa, tell me in advance. I, as the grandson-in-law, need to personally inform the old man of our engagement."

Ji Zhinan was taken aback: "How did you know I went to see Grandpa?"

Gu Yibei gave her a meaningful look before lowering his head to pick up some food.

"..." Ji Zhinan touched his nose, okay.

She called him "Yibei".

"Um?"

Do you know the Warrens family?

Gu Yibei looked up and stared at her.

Ji Zhinan lowered his eyes: "Today, Grandpa relented and told me everything he knew. He said my father's name is Li Yuan and my mother's name is Xi Luo. They were hunted down by the Warrens family back then."

She paused for a moment, then added, "My father was the young master of the Warrens family, and he may have died... twenty years ago."

"No wonder," the man said.

"What?" Ji Zhinan asked in confusion.

"If it were the Warrens family, it wouldn't be surprising if they possessed this jade pendant."

Ji Zhinan immediately sat up straight.

Placing the bowl and chopsticks aside, Gu Yibei elegantly wiped his hands with a tissue.

"The Warrens family is the first family in Europe, known as the head of the Western dragons. It has a long history and is a true aristocratic family."

“They have businesses all over the world and wield considerable power, but their main influence is still in Europe.”

For Gu Yibei to utter the words "has great power," it seems the Warrens family is indeed very powerful.

Gu Yibei paused, then said, "However, the Warrens family is a pure Western aristocracy, and all family members have Western features..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Ji Zhinan's Eastern face.

"Did Grandpa really tell you that?"

"Yes." Ji Zhinan nodded.

Gu Yibei then asked, "Does Grandpa know your father's name in the Warrens family?"

Having names would make the investigation much easier.

Ji Zhinan shook his head.

I don't know. Grandpa only knew about the Warrens family; it was Mom who told him.

Perhaps even the name Li Yuan is fake; what her father's real name was remains unknown.

"Yi Bei, do you know what happened twenty years ago?"

Gu Yibei is a nobleman from Country Y, so he should know much more about this than I do.

Gu Yibei thought for a moment, "I only know a little bit about it. I heard that the Warrens family did have a major internal reshuffle twenty years ago, and many people died at that time."

The rest are family secrets, and as an outsider, he naturally wouldn't know them.

However, since this matter is related to Nan Nan, he will dig it out no matter how big the secret is.

……………

Despite natural disasters and man-made calamities, the Cao family ultimately could not survive and declared bankruptcy.

"Xiaxia, you have to help me! I don't want my family to go bankrupt. Please get Uncle Ji to invest in our family. We're best friends..."
